Entertaining the idea of removing the Entertainment Center

Two couches and an entertainment center was just a little too much for this small living room. The arrangement was also blocking the window which is often a bad idea when showing off a room. Removing the smaller couch (loveseat) and moving the larger one in it's place really opened up the room. Removing the small entertainment center also helped to add more space. Adding an open leg coffee table instead of the solid one also added some "airiness" to the arrangement. We lightened up the walls a little, took the photo when it was a little lighter outside and... voila, a "show room" in an 800 sq. ft. house.

Thanks for the approval everyone. The owner was moving in with her elderly mother (to help take care of her) and she was only a few blocks away so she could move things out with no problem. I'm with you Kathy - I rarely like entertainment centers.

Wow Leanne! What a fabulous transformation -- it truly looks like a different house! This is such an excellent example of why sellers need help from a professional stager. Most homeowners simply don't know how to best show their home. They must have been very happy with the outcome!
